SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | House of Hummingbird/ 벌새
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2018 | 138 Minutes | Bora Kim\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“There is a certain tentativeness to the 14-year-old Eun-hee (Ji-hu Park) in writer-director Bora Kim’s sure-handed feature debut “House of Hummingbird\,” a tender yet somewhat underpowered coming-of-age film set in the Seoul of 1994. Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates. Once registered with a customer account\, attendees will receive a confirmation with a link to view the film. This video link will only be available for 72 hours from the time you press play.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2021 David Noel Freedman Seminar
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will provide an opportunity for students to learn from Dr. Davidson in a smaller setting and ask questions about issues related to colonialism\, museum collecting\, and the Bible.\n\nPlease register here: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJctcuCsqDgvGdAwbZXvzSl20icACdwirItc \n\n\nObjects form the critical deposits of museums and archives. This becomes obviously true in the case of biblical museums and archives that desperately rely upon material remains to bring the Bible to life. These archives have been central to Biblical Studies and the maintenance of the Bible as a product of imperial modernity. The Bible as a text and archive plays a critical role in the production and maintenance of the narratives of racial capitalism\, a central aspect of Western modernity. By examining the language and ephemera of contemporary readers\, who have been racialized by imperial logics that produce Bible translations and narrativize objects in archives\, this presentation situates the geography of contemporary racialized readers as the site from which to develop an archive of the Bible. Local geographies\, both the specific geography of the context of the Bible and the geography of a modern reader\, are seen as productive challenges to the universalizing myths of modernity. Greater attention to contextual languages and experiences offer opportunities to unmask the cultural and geographical boundedness of stories\, objects\, and lives that form the core deposit of the Bible.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium:  Dissecting dopamine function in stress-related sleep disturbances
DESCRIPTION:Proper sleep is essential for well-being\, yet it is disrupted in many neuropsychiatric conditions\, including major depressive disorder. Major depression is a debilitating psychiatric disease and among the leading causes of disability worldwide. Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in individuals suffering from depression\, and it is currently understood that the strong association between sleep disturbances and depression stems from a common mechanistic origin. The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a potential key brain structure to link sleep dysregulation and depression–as the VTA has a central role in sleep/wake regulation\, and its activity is altered during wakefulness in depression. Nonetheless\, it remains unresolved if activity in VTA neurons is altered during sleep in depression\, and if sleep disturbances during depression are inducing depression-related symptoms. My project aims to fill this knowledge gap. My core hypothesis is that chronic alterations in VTA neuron activity during sleep induce sleep/wake disturbances\, which result in depression-related symptoms. I am currently testing this hypothesis by defining the alterations in VTA dopaminergic neuron activity during sleep in a mouse model for depression. During this talk\, I will discuss my preliminary findings and future research directions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CREES/Ford U.S.-Russia Future Leaders Professional Development Workshop. Participatory Development in the Kyrgyz Republic: A Simulation and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event has closed.\n\nFrom 2014-2019\, the US Agency for International Development implemented a project in the Kyrgyz Republic to strengthen agricultural productivity and address food insecurity\, primarily among agricultural farming families. One of the first steps the project took in 2014 was to engage with local stakeholders to decide which agricultural value chains to target\, and what type of farm-level assistance would be most effective.\n   \nDuring the workshop\, students will each take on the role of a key stakeholder and participate in a community deliberation activity to help the project make these decisions. Students will participate in a variety of participation tools to spur brainstorming and information sharing\, generate ideas\, resolve conflict\, and make group decisions. After the simulation\, students will have a discussion about the exercise\, reflecting on the experience of being a participant\; how participation can unearth previously unidentified problems\, solutions\, and critical contextual factors\; compare the tools and approaches applied to other types of participation tools and approaches\; and the role of community power dynamics in participation activities.\n   \nAmy Harris\, a post-doctoral fellow at the Ford School of Public Policy\, will lead this workshop. Amy merges both experience as a former foreign aid implementation professional working on USAID and World Bank projects\, and academic expertise in foreign aid contracting and participatory development. Amy holds a PhD in Public Policy and Management from the University of Washington.\n   \nParticipating students must agree to complete select readings prior to the workshop session and to play an active role in the simulation\, as an assigned stakeholder.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Frankel Institute Event Series: Stranger Still: Translating Contemporary Poetry from Israel/Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Our final installment of the “Stranger Still” series features the poets Sheikha Hlewa and Yosefa Raz\, who will read selections of their poems and translations in Arabic and English. They will join series organizers Adriana X. Jacobs and Alex Moshkin in a conversation about their experiences as Arabic and English-language writers in Israel/Palestine and Raz’s English translations of Helawy’s Arabic poetry. \n\nSheikha Hussein Hlewa was born in Dhayl 'Araj\, an unrecognized Bedouin village outside of Haifa in 1968 and attended the Sisters of Nazareth School in Haifa. She later moved to Jaffa and studied for a BA and MA in Arabic and Hebrew literature at Tel Aviv University. An educator by profession\, Hlewa has worked as a teacher of Arabic and\, more recently\, as the educational program director for schools in East Jerusalem. Her poems and stories have been published online and in print in the Arab world. She is the author of the poetry collection Outside the Seasons I Learned How to Fly (2015\, خارج الفصول تعلّمت الطيران)\, and three short-story collections: The Ladies of Twilight (2015\, سيّدات العتمة)\, Windows are Spoiled Books (2016\, النوافذ كتب رديئة) and Order C345 (2018\, c345 الطلبيّة)\, which won the 2019 Almultaqa Prize in the short-story category and was translated into Hebrew by Ilana Hammerman as A Pause for Barking (Afik\, 2020). A new collection of poetry\, Maybe We’ll Need More than a Forest\, is forthcoming in an Arabic-Hebrew bilingual edition\, with Hebrew translations by the poet Rachel Peretz. She is currently working on her PhD on “Individual and Collective Concerns in Contemporary Palestinian Women’s Poetry” at Bar Ilan University.\n\nYosefa Raz is a poet\, translator\, and scholar. She is currently an assistant professor in the Department of English Language & Literature at the University of Haifa. She completed her PhD in the joint doctoral program in Jewish Studies at UC Berkeley and the Graduate Theological Union\, where she received the Goor Essay Prize in Jewish Studies and the Eisner Prize in poetry. Her poetry books include In Exchange for a Homeland\, and the chapbooks This Rumor of Darger’s Armies of Girls\, and All these years practicing while momentous events were happening all around. With Adriana X. Jacobs and Shachar Pinsker\, she translated Women’s Hebrew Poetry on American Shores\, focusing on the work of Anne Kleiman. Her translations of Tahel Frosh\, Ya’akov Biton (with Shaul Setter) and Sheikha Hlewa have appeared in The Ilanot Review\, Dibur\, World Literature Today\, and the Boston Review. Her poetry and essays have also appeared recently in Entropy\, Jacket2\, Guernica\, and the LA Review of Books. Her scholarship is focused on the often fraught transformation of prophecy into poetry\, and reflections on this topic can be read in articles published in the Walt Whitman Quarterly Review and Modern Language Quarterly\, and in a forthcoming book\, tentatively titled The Poetics of Prophecy.\n\nSheikha Hussein Hlewa’s photo credit: Sophie Snir Shaar\nYosefa Raz photo credit: Lydia Daniller\n\n\nRegistration Required: https://myumi.ch/0WnxZ

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | The Making of a Medium: Borrowing Views from Painting and Fiction in Early Modern Chinese Garden Design
DESCRIPTION:The notion that gardens might offer a private space\, apart from the larger public world and even family responsibilities\, dates to the middle Tang (late 8th-early 9th c.). Dr. Kile’s talk offers an introduction to the first two works in the Chinese tradition to consider the making of the garden itself as an art: Ji Cheng's Yuanye (Fashioning Gardens\, 1631-34) and Li Yu's Xianqing ouji (Leisure Notes\, 1671). Both men create a middle category between manual laborer and garden proprietor: that of the garden designer\, who\, they both argue\, is the true master of the garden. The work of raising garden design to the status of an expressive art\, rather than mere craft\, followed the model by which literati painting had been elevated in status during the Song dynasty (960-1279)\, when literati borrowed from theories of poetry to argue that painting\, too\, could express the \"hills and valleys\" in their hearts.\n   \n   SE Kile is Assistant Professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Michigan. A specialist in Ming and Qing literature and culture\, Dr. Kile is finishing a book that theorizes early modern mediation and entrepreneurship through a synthesis of Li Yu's (1611-1680) cultural production.\n\nZoom webinar\; attendance requires registration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YJwm_w_JS_iHdY3mpQLHZg

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Reforming Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Dutch artist Hans van Houwelingen will reflect on his ongoing research on commemorative monuments. Apart from the hardware of monuments\, he explores how to reform the practice of commemoration itself. Van Houwelingen and the Indonesian artist Iswanto Hartono (Ruangrupa) are currently collaborating on a research project to investigate both the presence and the absence of monuments in colonial locations. Among his case studies are monuments in Indonesia removed after 1945 Independence. The Van Heutsz monument in Jakarta\, designed by the Dutch architect Willem Marinus Dudok\, was destroyed just after the Independence of Indonesia. Meanwhile\, the Van Heutsz monument in Amsterdam exists today as the Indie Nederland Monument. These and other monuments enter into the discussion of commemoration and its erasure.\n\nBio: Hans van Houwelingen (Harlingen 1957) attended Minerva Art Academy in Groningen (Netherlands) and at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam. His work is manifested in the form of interventions projects in public space\, exhibitions\, films\, lectures and publications\, in which he investigates the relations between art\, culture and politics. He publishes regularly in newspapers and magazines. The monograph STIFF Hans van Houwelingen vs. Public Art (Artimo\, 2004) offers an overview of his projects and texts and an extensive reflection on his work. The publication Update describes the permanent update of the Lorentzmonument in Arnhem (NL) during the exhibition Sonsbeek 2008. In 2011 Undone (Jap Sam Books 2011) was published\, presenting nine critical reflections on three recent works. In 1988 Van Houwelingen won a Prix de Rome prize. He received The Queen Wilhelminaring oeuvre award in 2013. Since 2015 he is an honorary member of the Academy van Arts from the Royal Akademy of Science (KNAW). Hans van Houwelingen lives and works in Berlin and Amsterdam.\n\nOrganized by the Committee on Equity\, Department of History of Art and co-sponsored by the Museum Studies Program. Kristin Hass (Associate Professor of American Culture and Faculty Coordinator of the Humanities Collaboratory) to moderate.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic History: Colonial institutions\, marriage markets\, and Africa's HIV epidemic: Evidence from Mozambique.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThree institutions organized much of colonial economic activity in sub-Saharan Africa: concessions of territory and population to companies\, labor reserves providing nearby employers with male temporary workers\, and colonial trade economies coercing peasants to produce agricultural exports. To make some of the first comparisons of these institutions’ short- and long-run impacts\, I exploit an arbitrary concession-labor reserve border in Mozambique. The concession was Africa’s longest lasting (1891-1942) and heavily restricted mobility\, while the labor reserve (1901-70s) was one of the most important\, sending one third of its men annually to work in South Africa (\"circular migrants\"). Colonial census data show that men in the concession before its abolition were half as likely to be circular migrants and boys were twice as likely to enroll in school\, but after it ended both outcomes converged. However\, even after the concession’s abolition\, marriage rates in the labor reserve were 10 to 25 percent higher and spousal age gaps may have been smaller. The likely explanation is the lasting social effects of nearly a century of circular migration. Consistent with the continuation of these patterns\, women’s HIV prevalence today is twice as high in the former concession while levels of economic development are similar.\n\n*To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:You Don’t Belong Here: The Stories Our Systems Tell and Why We Have to Disrupt Them
DESCRIPTION:Many universities message extensively around their commitments about diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. These institutional assertions are often called into question\, though\, by the stories of members of the higher education community who continue to face marginalization and othering within their professional and educational spaces. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one woman’s reflections on her experiences of higher education and her interactions with a range of systems that sent a persistent message that she didn’t belong\, that she would never truly be a part of her university community. Through session activities\, participants will consider how these messages manifest and why they continue to occur despite the extensive labor of individuals sincerely committed to advancing equity.\nThe theatrical portion of this session contains strong language.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professor Gregory Dowd\, the Helen Hornbeck Tanner Collegiate Professorship in American Culture and History\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Two iconic documents mark the achievement of formal independence for the United States: The Declaration of Independence (1776)\, in which the thirteen colonies manifested their determination to be free of Great Britain\, and the Treaty of Paris (1783)\, in which the British Crown finally recognized that freedom. This paper approaches the Declaration and the treaty negotiations from the standpoint of both rumor and Native American history.  The Declaration defames Native Americans. The Treaty claims vast Native lands for the United States without indigenous consent. Among the forces that produced these outcomes were deliberate anti-indigenous—and anti-British—deceptions\, or hoaxes\, or what we might call today “fake news.”  Benjamin Franklin\, signer of The Declaration and a leading treaty negotiator\, understood the workings of rumor and the power of misinformation\; he lied actively in his war-time efforts for the United States. This paper examines two hoaxes\, one the invention of settlers in the Smoky Mountains\, the other the invention of Franklin\, suggesting that \"fake news\" helped shape the two documents. What’s more\, this fake news\, and its circulation\, though aimed largely at the Crown\, profoundly reveals the deep colonial and imperial contempt for indigeneity.  \n\nNote: The lecture quotes anti-indigenous slurs.  It references a Pennsylvania militia attack on an indigenous community\, arguably the greatest atrocity of the Revolutionary War.\n\n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95027136566\nOr iPhone one-tap : \n    US: +13126266799\,\,95027136566#  or +16468769923\,\,95027136566# \nOr Telephone:\n    Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n        US: +1 312 626 6799  or +1 646 876 9923  or +1 301 715 8592  or +1 346 248 7799  or +1 669 900 6833  or +1 253 215 8782 \n        Canada: +1 647 558 0588  or +1 778 907 2071  or +1 204 272 7920  or +1 438 809 7799  or +1 587 328 1099  or +1 647 374 4685 \nWebinar ID: 950 2713 6566\n    International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/acM7CVpLVR\n\nOr an H.323/SIP room system:\n    H.323: \n    162.255.37.11 (US West)\n    162.255.36.11 (US East)\n    115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n    115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n    213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n    213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n    103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n    103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n    149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n    64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n    69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n    65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n    207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n    149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\n    Meeting ID: 950 2713 6566\n    SIP: 95027136566@zoomcrc.com

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2020-21 | South Korean Film Industry Conference
DESCRIPTION:Register for the conference here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/yK21R\n\nSouth Korean cinema provides one of the most striking case studies of non-Western cinematic success in the age of the neoliberal world order\, in which Hollywood dominates the global movie consumer’s heart\, mind\, and soul. Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues.  Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nTuesday\, April 13\n\n7:00-8:00pm       Panel 2: Transformation of the South Korean Film Industry 1\n\nChair: Dal Yong JIN (Simon Fraser University)\n\nThe Korean Film Industry’s Ambivalent Relationship to the Studio System\nJason Bechervaise (Sungshil Cyber University) \n\nShort Film Productions in South Korea\nJulian Stringer (University of Nottingham)\n\n8:10-9:40pm       Industry Roundtable\n\nSpeakers:\nWON Dong-yeon (Producer\; Along with the Gods)\,\n\nPARK Eun-Kyung (Producer: A Taxi Driver)\,\n\nIM Soon-rye (Director: Little Forest)\,\n\nMIN Kyu-dong (Director: Herstory)\n\nModerator: HEO Chul (Nanyang Technological University\; Director of The Return)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.
